4.Karn Sharma – Royal Challengers Bangalore
Indian leg-spinner Karn Sharma is called the luckiest IPL player ever because in 2016, 2017 and 2018, he won the tournament with three different teams. Sunrisers Hyderabad, Mumbai Indians, and Chennai Super Kings lifted the cup when he was a member of their squad. However, very few fans would know that Karn was a part of Royal Challengers Bangalore in 2009, and the team reached its first final that year.
3.James Faulkner – Kings XI Punjab
Australian all-rounder James Faulkner rose to prominence after playing well for Rajasthan Royals. But, it was the Kings XI Punjab team that gave him his first real IPL contract in 2012. Pune Warriors India had used him as a replacement in 2011 and next year Preity Zinta bid for him. After a few under-par performances, Faulkner was released by the team.
2.Tatenda Taibu – Kolkata Knight Riders
Former Zimbabwean wicket-keeper batsman Tatenda Taibu is one of the few players from his country who can brag of playing in the IPL. Taibu made his IPL debut as a part of the Shahrukh Khan-owned franchise Kolkata Knight Riders. He played just three games for them in 2008, scoring 31 runs at a dismal average of 10.33.
1.Shivnarine Chanderpaul – Royal Challengers Bangalore
Caribbean great Shivnarine Chanderpaul earned a place in the Royal Challengers Bangalore lineup during the inaugural season of IPL. Playing along with the likes of Virat Kohli, Rahul Dravid, and Misbah-ul-Haq, Chanderpaul did not achieve much success as he ended his career with only 25 runs in three innings.
